Côte Rôtie La Brocarde, Domaine Christophe Billon 2020

Tasting Notes

Not yet bottled, the 2020 Côte Rôtie La Brocarde (there's 3% Viognier) sports a dense purple hue as well as smoking good aromatics of darker, almost blue fruits, charred meat, graphite, and crushed stone-like minerality. It's a big, powerhouse Côte Rôtie, but it stays tight, focused, and pure on the palate, with plenty of ripe tannins. It's a wine that will demand bottle age.
